| User ReviewWolfgang LThis movie maybe is the best movie austrian filmmakers have ever made. It portraits the dark side of Salzburg and Austria in such a perfect way. And its lots of fun watching it. |
| User ReviewJohannes MA great movie. Set in Salzburg, Austria and made after a novel from Wolf Haas (i strongly recommend this author) this movie is a complex criticism on the society as a whole, concentating a bit on the church and the high society. It is full of sarcasm and black humor, doesn't try to show us perfect persons and feels very very real. watch it if you can get it (and if you can handle a lot of sarcasm). |
| User ReviewJW MExcellent thriller with some very warped/scary goings on in a place usually more famed for its opera and rather yummy patisseries. |
